Gury Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Hi all, There were many great disk/paper magazines and newsletters with good software and articles around for our lovely computers, but slowly vanished away when market became smaller or even disappeared in some countries. I still search for more complete list of disk magazines and found out some are fortunatelly put online, like Mega Magazine, Best Of Pokey, Top-Magazin, Flop and every other I forgot (sorry). ANG Software had Pokey Magazine in Dutch, Best Of Pokey and Mega Magazine in English. Besides that, there were many good disk magazines in German (Top-Magazin), Polish and Czech (Flop) language. My question is: Will there be any translations of these great sources? I would do that if I understood foreign languages besides English. Any reply very appreciated, thanks!

Bunsen Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 German disk mags are a great ressource. In the late 80s and early 90s there were lots of disk mags out there. It would be a huge project to make them all available on one site (and unlike bigger to translate them all). List of german disk mags: Top-Magazin ZONG ABBUC Magazin PD Mag PPP PD Mag Compy Shop Magazin Starsoft Magazin ECS Info Mag AMC Soft Magazin Diskline User Mag CCB Mag XLE Mag QuickMagazin Hamburger Atari Club Magazin Unfortunately only the ABBUC Mag survived.
